Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recent Happenings in Persia I would, then, ask my Persian friends to believe that my criticism is actuated by no feeling of un friendliness, but Solely by a desire to present facts in their true colours. I have to acknowledge my great indebtedness to H. H. Hormoz Mirza for having kindly offered to read that portion of this book which had been written prior to my departure from Persia, and for having placed at my disposal his wide knowledge regarding events and conditions. The Opinions expressed are, however, my own, since he agreed with me that it would be out of place for a native of the country to attempt to influence the impression formed by a soj ourner.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Persia in Revolution: With Notes of Travel in the Caucasus The latter section of the book - ih Trans caucasia-has, however, nothing to say of Persian revolutions or of Persian politics. Still, it is not a far cry from Northern Persia to Transcaucasia; the transition is not violent, both belong to the Middle East the one is a Russian province, the other is in Russia's sphere of influence. What Transcaucasia said yesterday, Persia is saying to-day. To Western Europe the chief political interest of this part of the world lies in the doings of Russia therein; and there is a connection between the Persian section of the book and the section about the Caucasus, because both in Persia and the Caucasus the persons with whom we mostly came into contact represented.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Behind an Eastern Veil: A Plain Tale, of Events Occurring in the Experience of a Lady, Who Had an Unique Opportunity of Observing, the Inner Life of Ladies of the Upper Class in Persia IT may be well that I should state that the de scriptions of things Persian in this book are ab solutely accurate. The episode of the Crown of Glory really took place; while the account of the great earthquake in Shiraz is given from the lips of one who was present at that appalling catastrophe. Strange things are here described, but they have happened, and will happen again nothing is exaggerated, nothing overdrawn, in this Plain Tale of life in Persia. As to the spelling of Persian words, the example of Morier is followed, and they are spelt as pronounced, no.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from When I Was a Boy in Persia The author had just returned from France, to be released from active service in the United States Navy, in which he en listed during the Great War. While wait ing to receive his final papers at the Bay Ridge Barracks, Brooklyn, N.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Struggle for Persia None of my predecessors (and they may be counted on the fingers) who have taken the almost impassable route between Eastern Russia (via Tabriz) to Teheran having thought fit to record their experiences, it devolves upon my unworthy self to narrate mine in this veritable "terra incognita." The interest lately awakened in England with reference to Persian affairs, together with the lamentable loss of British prestige and British influence, and the overwhelming power of Russia - as they appeared to me - must be my further excuse for bringing them to the notice of all lovers of king and country, in the earnest hope that means may be found to retrieve the paramount supremacy of England in a country where once it was without a rival.

Download or read book Ancient History written by Charles Rollin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Rollin, a French historian and educator, took it upon himself to write compendiums of Ancient history. Rollin's Ancient History: History of the Persians is an in depth look at Persia through geography, politics, and history. The book begins exploring the "Physical History of Persia" which refers to the provinces of Persia. While exploring the Western, Eastern, and Central provinces, Rollin also goes into depth on specific places such as Gedrosia, Carmania, and Arachosia. Rollin also explores topical elements such as mountains, rivers, and lakes of note. In addition, he examines the climate of Persia and the multitude of things Persia produces. This physical history is a solid foundation for further exploration of Persia. The next section of the book explores political history. Rollins examines the power of Persian kings. He also discusses the Seven State Counselors, and administrative powers. In addition, he looks at both military power and priestly power in Persia. Rollin knows that understanding the political history of Persia helps the reader get a greater understanding of Persia as a whole. To increase the reader's knowledge of Persian politics, Rollin dedicates the next section to discussing specific Persian Kings and their reigns. Ultimately, it is the politics of Persia that truly interest Rollin and he dedicates the end of the book to discussing that and its importance. But while dynasties are ruled by kings and are powerful at one point in time, Rollin leaves the reader with a final thought: "In this age, power and empire are in the hands of one people; in the next, a nation unheard of before comes forth, and rudely plucks it from their hands. By whose direction do these things occur?" About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Literature of Persia Now it is, I think, always desirable in the first instance to get a clear idea of the ground covered by a subject of which one proposes to treat. Modern, post-muhammadan, Persian literature - a literature covering a period Of about a thousand years - is what I propose to discuss this afternoon but I must Observe in passing that a comprehensive survey of the literature or literatures of Persia would include more than this. There are three older pre-muhammadan literatures well worthy of. Study which belong to Persia; and, though I shall not have time to discuss them to - day, I must at least mention them.
